From: "Sherman, Daniel" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2014 10:54:09 +0000 **Apologies for cross posting** Swets Information Services B.V. Bankruptcy: Next steps from SAGE SAGE appreciates that Swets Information Services B.V. being declared bankrupt will cause considerable work for libraries who have previously subscribed through Swets and we are doing all we can to help minimise the impact during the renewal season. We hope this message gives you all the information you need. Over the next week we will be sending print and online renewal notices for Swets customers direct to our library customers who previously ordered through Swets. You can then pass this information to your new agent or you can renew direct with SAGE. If you would like our assistance in transferring to a new agent simply email [log in to unmask], giving us the name of your new agent. We will work with them to transition your subscriptions. If you don't receive a renewal from us within the next week do let us know. SAGE's gracing policy enables to you to access your online journals for up to 90 days after your subscription expires. Do contact us at the email address above if you are concerned that you are about to lose access and we will do all we can to help during the renewal season. If you previously accessed your subscribed to SAGE content via Swetswise, you can now access this content directly from SAGE Journals. Please contact [log in to unmask] and we will ensure your SAGE Journals account is set up. Please contact SAGE's Customer Services representatives if you have recently made any payments to Swets for subscription renewals relating to SAGE journals so they can review the status of these renewals. They can also help with any other renewal queries you may have about individual SAGE journal title renewals.
